Re: Xerox scan doc ftp to system ifs dir

["Jim Franz" <franz400@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In the Xerox case, the setup requires the user/pwd to be in the Xerox
control panel config, and not an entry & scan time.
We are planning on a new profile just for this purpose, so the home dir
for that profile should do it.
There does not seem to be a modifiable script.
The maint window is Sat & the box needs some ftp ptfs, so will try then.
Right now, from a desktop command prompt, the ftp logs on,
but the "put" hangs (v6r1).
Initial name format  . . . . . .   *PATH
Initial directory  . . . . . . .   *HOMEDIR
Initial list format  . . . . . .   *DFT
   (Larry said this needs to be *unix to work & gave appropriate warning)

at the options.
Thanks for all the details.
